It's been saying Stafford and Coventry for February update since the list came out, but as yet there's been no sign of any change here ( Stafford).I wouldn't hold your breath.
Incidentally, I have seen some posts from Preston, complaining it's gone tits-up since the upgrade.And before I get a warning again for language, that's what it said in the Preston posting.
I have to say that after reading them I'm a bit aprehensive about the coming upgrade. At present I'm getting the speed I pay for and am pleased to again be getting it.The three months when I didn't were most frustrating.

Stafford's been upgraded mate! Reboot your modem.

I've just done a speed test, and got these results so I'm happy: -

Downstream: 11,382 Kbps
Upstream: 422 Kbps

Test 1: 1024K took 11957 ms = 85.6 KB/sec, approx 705 Kbps, 0.69 Mbps
Test 2: 1024K took 6882 ms = 148.8 KB/sec, approx 1226 Kbps, 1.2 Mbps
Test 3: 1024K took 7910 ms = 129.5 KB/sec, approx 1067 Kbps, 1.04 Mbps
Test 4: 2048K took 18813 ms = 108.9 KB/sec, approx 897 Kbps, 0.88 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 974 Kbps, 0.95 Mbps

why oh why do they do these upgrades before the system can cope?
and can anyone confirm that the 20meg service is going onto docsis3 or whatever it is
tia
:confused: Brighton hasn't been upgraded yet.

i agree and when i spoke to Head office back about 2 weeks ago he said that they have no intentions of scrapping the entry level 2mb, he didnt even mention it being upgraded to 4mb.
